The LiUuOr Traffic,

Don't skip this piece and decline
to read it just because it has 'liquor'
in it. If you do not relish the drink,
you will nevertheless find in it food
for thought. The item is taken from
the New York Times, paper gener-
ally careful of it's news statements.
What a blasting sarcasm the para
graph contains upon the religion of
civilization; or rather upon the civili-
zation which we claim as growing out
Of our religion:
Every ship that takes missionaries
to Africa carries enough poisonous
rum and gin to offset in evil the good
effects of the labors of q thousand
missionaries. Since the opening Of
the Congo region enormous quanti-
ties of this stuff-so vile that there is
no market for it in civilized countries
have been shipped to the savages
by wealthy companies doing business
in London and Holland. Other compa-
nios flood the German possessions in
Africa with the worst liquors that
ever were made. Missionaries in all
parts of the Dark Continent are now
pleading with European Governments
for the restriction or abolition Of this
traffic. They will probably discover
that Great Britain and other coloniz-
ing nations open neglected corners Of
the earth for the profits of trade and
not to spread the benefits OF religion,
and that the trade in bad rum and
worse gin is too profitable to be sac
rifced to what traders would call
sentiment. The truth is that the
most inviting field for missionaries
who long to save the savage of Africa
are London, Amsterdam and Berlin.
If they could convert the traders Of
those cities and the courts that pro-
tect and encourage them, they would
he of great service to the heathen
who is suffering under the influences
of a false "civilization."

THE LITTLE CLOUD.
by JOHN HOWARD BRYANT.

rThe author of the following was broth
er of William Cullen Bryant, and shared in
the poetical talents of his more distinguish
ed brother. He resided near Princeton, Ill.
This poem probably referred to different
period, but ia equally appropriate to the
present crisis. ED. FREE PREssl.
As when on Carmols sterile steep,
The ancient prophet bowed the knee,
And seven times sent his servant forth,
TO look toward the distant sea;
There came at last distant cloud,
Scarce larger than n human hand,
Spreading aud swelling till it broke,
In showers on all that herbless land.
And hearts were glad and shouts went up,
Aud praise to Israers mighty God,
And the scar hills grew bright with flowers
And yerdure clothed the valley sod
Even so our eyes have waited long;
But now a little cloud appears,
Spreading and swelling as it glides
Onward into the coming years
Bright cloud of liberty! full soon
Far stretching from the ocean strand,
Thy glorious folds shall spread abroad,
Encirclng our beloved land,
Like the sweet rain on Judca's bills,
The glorious boon of love shall fall
And our bond millions shall aiise,
AS at the angels trumpet call,
Then shall shout of Joy go up
The wild glad cry of freedom como
From hearts long crushed by cruel hands,
And songs from lips long sealed and dumb;
And every bondsman's chain be broke,
And every soul that moves abroad
In his wide realm shall know and feel
The blessed liberty of God.

1t was wonderful showing that
Gladstone made of England's pro-
gress in the last fifty years in review
ing Tennyson's new "Locksley Hail.
1t is enough to cheer the hearts OF
mankind everywhere to read the re.
cord, undisputed, that England's
grand old man has made up to show
that the world is moving onward. 1t
is useless to assert, in the presence of
such an array of statistical facts, that
we are behind our ancestors in any
thing that constitutes human physi-
ical comfort, or human, mental and
moral elevation. Let us glance over
q synopsis of the steps of progress:
Slavery abolished; criminal code
reformed; poor law abuses swept
away; mining and other labor evils
lessened; smuggling stopped by cor
rection of "fscal follies;" educational
advantages extended to the poor;
guaranteed protection for savings;
cheap postsge; special tax lifted from
the press, making newspapers cheap;
monopolies struck down; franchises
extended and ballot made secret; ad-
mission to parliament freed from
property qualifcation;old universities
open to oil; non-conformist church
rates put away; oath not required Of
those not believing in it; fewer hours
of work, increased wages and cheap
er living; title of tenant to what he
adds to value of land made good; re-
duction of expenses of parliamentary
elections and decline in corruption;
women admitted to new public duties
and greater equality under the laws;

corporations; civil service naformed;
promotion by merit instead Of pur--
chase in the army and navy; abolition
of Aogging in the army; presa gang

In bis last sermon, B1r. Beecher as
serts q fact which is not often enough
insisted upon in the discussion Of
public affairs, viz: that the American
Republic is no longer an experiment,
bnt an accomplished and permanent
fact. II has fully demonstrated its
right to exist, that is to say, and its
power to cope successfully with every
form Of trial and danger. There are
many tests in store for il yet, no
doubt: but il has reached a stage
where the causes Of rectitu5e and re
form are ize'lly greater than the
causes Of mischief and decay. and
that implies safety under any con

Severely Repremanded,

CHICAGO, Jan. ia special to the Inter
Ocean from Springfield, Ill, says: The ind
iDgs OF the Court OF Inquiry investigating
the charges of embezzlement against Colonel
W. V. Jacobs, of the First Regiment of
Cavalry, Illinois National Guard were made
public yesterday. Governor 0glesby, as Com
mander-in-Chief of the militia, approves the
findings and in general order severely CEN
sures Colonel Jacobs, who is instructed TO at
once reimburse the regiment to the extent of
50. 700. That sum is accounted for in the
ColOners record. Ii is declared by the court
that no intent to embezzle was proven against
Colonel Jacobs, but the evidence showed
gross neglect and carelessness on his part.
Colonel Jacobs is also found guilty Of irreg-
ularity in combininc as own person the
Offices of president, secre.ary aud treasurer
of the regiments armoTy association, while
at the same time acting as commanding Of
icer and treasurer of the military orgsniza-
ton. A heavy reprimand is extended to
Colonel Jacobs for persisting in retaining
these offices for year after ne had been pub
licly charged with financial direlection. The
First Regiment of Cavalry is q Chicago
organization, and, with its Colonel, is widely
known.

RniIwav Deal.

New York, Jan. 16.-The Mail aud Ex-
press says of the deal between the Richmond
East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Rail
road Company: This purchase will add
,423 miles TO the 2 POP already owned by
the Terminal Company, and give it COM
handing position in the South-one that
is practically impregnable. 1t is curious to
note that all this has been done by the pur-
chase of stock. The East Tennessee controls
the Memphis and Charleston by stock owner
ship. The Terminal controls the Danville
by stock ownership, and the latter controls
the lines in its system by lease. The Norfolk
and Western has been left out but it is not
likely to suffer much on that acc punt, aud
there is no reason to suppose that the
amicable relations now existing between
that line and the East Tennessee will be dis
turbtd in the least"

SPIES PROSPECTIVE BRIDE.
She is Much Admired for Her Beauty and
Accomplishments.

PIrTsBURG, Jan. 16-Miss Nina Clarke Van
zandt of Chicago who is soon to be married
to August Spies, the condemned Anarchist,
is well known to many Pittsburg people,
having formerly visited here. She is grand
daughter OF II. ID. Clarke, who was one Of the
most prominent lawyers in this section, and
lived IN Beaver. Her mothers sister is still
living here. She married John Arthur, who
died some years ago. He was a wealthy man
Ufactarer, and left a large fortune in real es-
tate and personal property, which went to
his widow. She resides in Oakland aud her
father, William B. Clarke, resides with her.
She has no children. Miss VanzanIt has
been regarded as her helress and visited her
frequently. She was among the guests at the
marriage of Miss Walker, the sister-in-law of
Mr.. George Yves inghouse, and was very
much admired because of her beauty
and mplishmentS. Mr.. Yanzandt, the
father of the young lady, is connected with
the well-known Moorehead family of this
city, being, it is said, nephew Of the late
General James K. Moorehead, after whom
he was named. 1t is reported that the mar
rage with Spies may divert the expected
Pittsburg inheritance OF Miss Vanzandt into
other channels

The second term of Hon. w. r Myers as
Secretary of State will end TO-DAY, and his
Republican successor. Mr.. Charles f. Griffin,
of Lake County, will take charge of the Office
tomorrow. Captain Meyer has made a
popular official and the efficiency with which
the duties Of the department have been per-
formed is evidenced by the admirable con
dition in which he leaves the records. The
forthcoming report of the Secretary (nOw in
the hands Of the printer) will form one of
the most valuable documents ever issued by
the State. The Secretary's assist
ants Mr.. Mvron D. King and
Miss Mary Wort b, Captain Myers niece, by
uniform courtesy and close application TO
business, enhanced the popularity of the Adj
ministrstion and are entitled to much credit
